The Pure Crescent pack has taken another dimension. Most of its state lay in ruin. Alpha Annik held the head of a young girl, furiously questioning her. “Are you the Sapphire Seer? I heard that transformed last week after twenty years of being powerless!”“Have mercy, Alpha Annik. Her miraculously revealed itself to her. She is not the one,” the girl's mother, crying as she struggled to break free from the tight hold of Annik's soldiers.“Shut it, woman!” he yelled. She turned to the frightened girl, “what am I thinking? What vision do you see?”“N-n-nothing,” she stammered, her eyes glowing blue.Annik snapped, slitting the girl's throat before commanding his men to kill the mother. Rumors have been making rounds that the Sapphire in the Pure Crescent pack's temple glowed a few nights back. Annik quickly ended the rumor and its source, confident that he had taken care of whatever would have caused the Sapphire to glow. The last time the lights were on was twenty years ago, when Annik
The ocean's wave hung midair. Same with the leaves and birds. Lana ran at speed, shooting as many wolves as she could, stabbing and snapping necks. With a snap of her hand, everything released, bodies landing in heaps, the ocean aggressively splashing.From the corners they fell into, Levi, Kamala, Viktor, Elijah, and the rest began to emerge. Lana exhaled. She shook her head to discard the pounding headache torturing her. Her eyes cleared, and she looked for a nearby tree to lean against, trying to get a balance.The Wordsworth wolves were down to one who was barely alive. The rest were dead. With her last strength, Lana went over to the frightened wolf. With a growl, she answered him. “Tell your Alpha to have the balls to show up for a peace talk. If he doesn't, the Silver pack will take it as a natural refusal and therefore strike. Let him know this,” she said.The frightened wolf ran off, limping as if it was barely alive. Lana scanned the area. Just in time, she found Kamala. “Wh
Annik walked to the Alpha mansion with Scott tagging along. Everyone he passed had fear written on their faces, he strode ahead to Scarlet in the bedroom. She paced from one end to the other. He pushed the door open, fisting her hair while kissing her aggressively.“I am sorry about earlier. You stirred something in me,” he mumbled against her mouth.Scarlet was tempted to push him away, irritated by such a dirty and prideful apology. Her courage failed her. Like a withering leaf, she stood and listened to him.“I thought you will be back at the shelter, taking care of the kids.” His jacket and shirt went flying, leaving him in just his pants and shoes. “I am going to have the Wordsworth Alpha here. Let them know that I need a banquet for fifteen.” His hands trailed and found a black shirt, which wore immediately.“The Lantern glowed. We all saw it. What am I not being told?”“To not ask stupid questions.”"Annik, let me in on what is going on. You said you were the rightful Alpha of t
Tyler and Lana walked over to the garage with a fleet of cars. This time, they weren't using a van, but a smaller sports car. He opened the door for her, and she jumped into the passenger side. Lana smelled incredible, and she looked fantastic in her simple attire.Tyler got into his side and keyed the ignition and reversed out of the driveway. “If there are so many cars, why do we keep using the van?”“You don't like it?”“I don't have a thing against it, either.”“It keeps us more meticulous. Most of what we go out to do doesn't require these flashy ones. We don't want eyes on our pack because they will start measuring our level of success with that as a fact, among other things.”“Why are you bent on hiding the greatness of this pack.”“Let me show you something. Then, I will answer you.” He began driving through the beautiful roads in the area. Each side was adorned with trees, flowers, and colorful birds. On the whole, most areas looked more like a garden than roads.“You guys to
“I’m sorry if talking about the past upsets you, I just want to know you more. Understand you.”They were silent. Tyler kept looking up at the moon. She kept looking at him. Finally, he said, “I was found by the old Alpha beside a riverbank when I was just a cub. The thought I had died due to the cuts and burns on my body. That is my story. No memories because I was too young to remember. The only thing I have from then is this bracelet.” He shoved the sleeve of his shirt up, revealing a beautiful bracelet made from white seashells with a green and blue pearl in the middle that formed a letter T. Immediately, Lana remembered that Levi had once told her of this.“So, the Alpha raised you?”“Technically, yes. He was on a walk with his beautiful wife that night when they heard my scent and faint moans. Immediately, they reached for me. That is another reason they had that barrier put around the pack. One, to let us know when someone is near and also protect an outsider from intruding eas
He tightened his grip on her breasts. They began to swell, the skin heating and reddening. Her nipples stiffened and distended, until the sight of them was lurid, turning her on even more. She looked from them to his transfixed gaze, then back. Still, he massaged; still, her flesh swelled. When she felt his heavy breaths on the sensitive tips, she squirmed with a perfect mix of misery and delight. She noticed that wetness was dripping from her core and she was going to come just from his touch.Her eyes went wide with discovery. She could orgasm without a single touch on her neglected pussy. The care he gave her was unmatched, mixed with their mate bind and the chemistry they had. This was the first time someone explored her, giving back what she never experienced.Never lessening his grip, he leaned down, letting his breaths torment the peaks even more. Avoiding contact with them, he darted his tongue to flick kisses along the sides, all around the tips.If he touched her nipples, sh
Lana couldn't stomach the stench that came from the morgue. Now that she wasn't fighting off enemies or defending herself, the sight of seeing a dead wolf was unappealing. She almost threw up her dinner. Hiding behind Tyler, uncontrollably fluttering her lashes to block out the sight. “Give me a detail of what you found,” Tyler instructed Elijah, who stood next to Viktor, all eyes on the dead wolf placed on top of the examination table.“He was poisoned with wolfsbane and silver. Kaylee and Katida did an autopsy and found traces of the content in his stomach from the remnants of what he ate. Someone must have added them to his meal.”Speaking of Katida, Lana has barely seen her since her return. She was either busy with her new role as Luna to have taken notice of this, or Katida was avoiding her. In her heart, she only wished she would accept her as her sisters did. However, it was not in her place to fight for that.“This has never happened before. If he was poisoned, someone wante
He strode over to her, grabbing her neck. “You obey when I speak. Don't question or protest. If I ask you to do something, you do it without wasting a second. Or, are you hiding something?”Hiding?He seized her hip with one hand. His other hand was climbing under her panties. “Will I find you wet? If so, you’re going to get it hard. If not, I won’t touch you.”His words, the airing of his breath against her ears, made her lose control over her response. He was as strong as fermented wine. She tried to squeeze her thighs together, but he forced them apart. Gael was growling in his head at the excitement. This was the part that made his adrenalin rush over and over. What a hot-blooded wolf. When he felt her damp panties, he grunted with satisfaction. “I think you are way too excited for this.”Was she? He rubbed her with his slow, hot fingers, sending her thoughts into chaos.Maybe she should brace herself to enjoy the much anticipated other side of him and figure out the growing chao
